I have just uploaded the archives for a new luatex release, 0.61.0, the first of the betas toward 0.70.0.

New features:

* New lua library 'epdf' for introspection of PDF inclusions,  see the manual for details.

Can I then build a luatex script that mimic pdftoppm & pdftops ?

no --- but definitely nice to have! i refrained from it as it needs many more includes, libraries (xpdf backends, X?), and helper files, e. g., .xpdfrc for managing fonts, lots of new stuff, never touched. But maybe it's not even difficult after all. The priority for now is to get it running with poppler, all this auto*@&#% stuff... Regards, Hartmut
